3 non-con with a permanent game against Colorado alternating home stadiums.
We preserve a big 8 rivalry and it is with one of the few big 8 schools that offers a decent enough population that we might get a recruiting benefit out of playing them every year.
I have no interest in playing the other big 8s because:
isu, ksu and osu will probably be mid major schools in a decade or two and offer no benefit population wise.
Nubs, OU and kU, although will still be in major conferences, don't offer population benefits and each school tends to focus narrowly on one sport so it wouldn't really be a fun year round rival.
Give me Colorado every year all sports alternate home and away.
Great trip to make for away games. Good population. Well rounded athletic department in totality (at least they try to be just like us).
